In recent publications from this laboratory, the application of /sup 31/P Fourier transform NMR spectroscopy to the analysis of -OH, -NH and -SH functionalities in coal extracts and pyrolysis condensates has been described. The authors indicated these studies with a series of reagents which contain two oxygen atoms in the five-membered phospholane ring system, and varying degrees of ring substitution. To determine the role of the heteroatoms within the ring system of the reagent and the size of the ring system, the authors are extending their investigations to include reagents such as Cl-P-(NMe)/sub 2/ 5-membered ring, Cl-P-S/sub 2/ 5-membered ring, and Cl-P-S/sub 2/ 6-membered ring. Here they describe the preliminary results with a series of model compounds derivatized with these reagents, and also with a coal low-temperature pyrolysis condensate.
